in their heads and other realistic but gory touches TIIE REAL TIIING Ray Atkinson Simcoe County EIIIO coordinator explained that the reason for the blood and thunder was to acquaint the team members with facing the real thing recognizing various injuries and learningto treat them with first aid Mr Atkinson intimated that at the time of real emergency effic iency would not be at its peak if members of team got squeamish at the sight of battered and bloody victim People were excited over the bombs and smoke and we explained that it was only de monstration Mr Atkinson said The purpose of the dc monstration was to let people know what is being done and what is planned for future months in the field of rescue Cost Of County Recreation Shared By Users Government By BERNARD ST AMANI

Church here capacity congregation wat ched the newly released film and gained fresh insight into the lives and practices of tha people of Asia The film showed children of Saigon being subsected to witch craft and demon possession fun eral pires burning in India lep Along with these there has been the administration of the program and staff for swim ming classes and day camps in the rural areas and small com munities Those of you who op erate your own business will understand what is involved in hiring and supervising staff and looking after daytoday opera tions The summer program grew with leaps and bounds be cause it was so much needed It began to take great deal of staff time and there was danger of it choking out other developments That is why the Simcoe Coun ty Recreation Board employed an additional staff member last fall This has already added balance and new dimensions to our work operations in emergencies While primarily trained and equipped for war the rescue teams are invaluable in any type of emergency or disaster Although fully trained res cue team does not yet exist in Barrie Mr Atkinson said that number of interested people in the area will begin training SOD

halfhour 3020 per hour for the next two hours and $1375 an hour for any work after 21 hours Public works chairman Fred Smith said that the apparently high cost was made up by pay ment for manpower truck sewer cleaning equipment over time and overhead He said the new sewercleanl log machine was on order and should be available in the spring Snow May Be Blessing Look For Bumper Crop Year Despite the above average amount of snow in Simcoe County rural areas this year It is not expected that spring plowing and planting will be delayed significantly this war Keith Clay Assistant Agricul tural Representative for Simcoe County said today that the heavy snow contrary to popu lar belief is proving valuable ally of local farmers who hope for good planting season in April and early May Mr Clay pointed out that the deep snow up to an average of three feet on most form fields in the county is instru mental in keeping frost depth penetration at minimum The frost in the ground is quite shallow he said and it should assist greatly in all owing water to run away and be absorbed easily into the ground when the thaw sets in for good The only area of difficulty seen by the representative was in the areas of heavy soil de posits He said that the ex cess of snow in these regions of which there are several in the county may lead to wet soggy load for few weeks longer than normal GOOD YEAR Pointing up the often over looked benefits of yaar with heavy snow and Iigit frost Mr Clay said crop wise this should be good year The heavy snow should run off and be absorbed quite easily and should

that moisture stored in the ground under these conditions often means the difference between good or bad crop year in the event of dry period occurring later in the growing season iilr Clay continued saying in years when we have very light snows it is often possible to get the crop into the ground little earlier but quite often the produce from this early planting is slow to come along later All crops need moisture of course and in seasonlwhen ground retention of moisture is high as appears likely this year crops do much better ties of some crops liir Clay pointed to corn as being one that does not do too well when excessive moisture ls present When ground is too wet the corn grows to helmt of 68 inches and then turns yellow and stops growing he said This is problem usually ass
